Basic Device Configuration 25
Administrative Access
By default, anyone in your network can manage a device if they know the login and
password. You can configure the device to be managed only from a specific host on
your network:
WebUI
Configuration > Admin > Permitted IPs: Enter the following, click Add:
IP Address/Netmask: ip_addr/mask
CLI
set admin manager-ip ip_addr/mask
save
Management Services
ScreenOS provides services for configuring and managing the SSG device, such as
SNMP, SSL, and SSH, which you can enable on a per-interface basis.
WebUI
Network > Interfaces > Edit (for ethernet0/0): Under Management Services,
select or clear the management services you want to use on the interface, then
click Apply.
CLI
set interface ethernet0/0 manage web
unset interface ethernet0/0 manage snmp
save
Host and Domain Name
The domain name defines the network or subnetwork that the device belongs to,
while the hostname refers to a specific device. The hostname and domain name
together uniquely identify the device in the network.
WebUI
Network > DNS > Host: Enter the following, then click Apply:
Host Name: name
Domain Name: name
CLI
set hostname name
set domain name
save
